Wikipedia“Shore was performing at the 8th Street Comedy Club in Odessa when he became irritated with audience members talking through his performance. In an angry exchange, one club-goer in a cowboy hat took to the stage and, goaded by the audience, punched ShoreÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s face, causing him to fall to the floor. The heckler was then led away by what appeared to be a police officer. Shore stood up and muttered, ”**** all you ****in' white trash,“ before leaving the stage.

The assault was later revealed to be a hoax. The chief of police of Odessa Texas released a statement which read in part: ”After viewing the video, the officer who was employed at the club in an off duty capacity, was contacted by investigators. The officer reported he had met with Mr. Shore prior to his set, and was asked to participate in the skit. The officer stated that the skit went as designed and that Shore was not injured in the designed skit."

I can't imagine why in the world Pauly would want to stage something like that. It made him look like a weak little sissy. But I guess he's being talked about.

Hey, remember when some bonehead at the FOX network thought a Pauly Shore show would be good, so he got his own show that lasted for about two episodes? What a doofus.

Well, to be realistic, Wikipedia can be edited by anyone, even Pauly Shore himself. Could he (or somebody) have made that as an excuse? I still wonder why he'd stage something that would make him look like a wiener.

Until other sources confirm that it's staged, we can still relish the thought of him getting decked. It kind of even things up for In the Army Now.
